In a shocking turn of events, NBA prospect Collin Murray-Boyles’ reaction after being selected by the Toronto Raptors has gone viral, and let’s just say, it’s not exactly what you would expect from a professional athlete.
When Murray-Boyles heard his name called during the NBA draft, his reaction was not one of joy or excitement. Instead, witnesses say he let out a high-pitched scream and promptly fainted on the stage. The video of his dramatic reaction has since been shared thousands of times on social media, with fans and fellow players alike questioning whether Murray-Boyles is cut out for the pressures of the NBA.
In an exclusive interview with our team at The Satire Times, Murray-Boyles attempted to explain his bizarre behavior. “I just couldn’t believe it, man. I was sure the Raptors were going to pick someone else, like, I don’t know, Bob Johnson or something. But then they said my name and I just lost it,” he said, still visibly shaken from the experience.
When asked about his plans for the upcoming season with the Raptors, Murray-Boyles had this to say: “Honestly, I don’t even know if I can handle the pressure of playing in the NBA. I might just retire and become a professional cheese taster instead. I hear there’s good money in that.”
The Raptors front office has yet to comment on Murray-Boyles’ reaction, but sources say they are already regretting their decision to draft him. “We were really hoping for a player with a bit more composure,” one anonymous team executive told us. “But hey, at least he’ll keep things interesting in the locker room.”
As for Murray-Boyles, he remains defiant in the face of criticism. “I may have fainted on stage, but mark my words, I’m going to be the best damn cheese taster the world has ever seen,” he declared before storming off in a fit of cheese-loving rage.
Only time will tell if Murray-Boyles can live up to his own lofty expectations, but one thing is for certain: the NBA just got a whole lot more interesting.
